About the Item

This is another bespoke creation from our fabulously wealthy client who had dresses made to order for her in the 1990s in France and Italy. Fashioned from a lilac spandex type fabric and featuring a deep v neckline, form-shaped bodice and vertical pleating. The empire waistline is gathered and with the volumous amount of fabric there is a pleasing weight to it. The embellishment on the dress is a mixture of dainty beaded trim backed onto tulle net encrusted with an assortment of crystals. In addition, there are two very large faceted crystal jewels in the centre of the bodice. At the back there is a floral applique which hides the top of the zip. In really excellent vintage condition, there are a handful of tiny abrasions in the jersey but as this is accordion pleated they're impossible to see when worn. Best fit for up to a UK 10 or US 6. MEASUREMENTS Bust - 32 in. (81.3 cm) Waist - 31 in. (78.7 cm) Hip - 39 in. (99 cm) Length - 58 in. (147.3 cm) Shoulders - 15 in. (38.1 cm)
